Semiconservative replication, DNA

Watson and Crick (see Volume 1) immediately saw the relationship of the double helix to genetic replication. They proposed that each strand of the chromosome serves as a template to specify a new, complementary DNA strand. A template is a pattern for making something DNA acts as a template because each strand specifies the new daughter strand by base-pairing. This template feature makes DNA replication semiconservative after replication, each daughter chromosome has one strand of newly synthesized DNA and one strand of DNA from the parental chromosome. See Figure 8-6. [Pg.146]
